本研究的主要目的在對《體育學報》與《大專體育學刊》兩期刊所收錄的論文進行內容分析，以瞭解刊載於兩期刊論文的學門次領域分佈狀況、作者與機構來源及熱門議題。以2009年〜2015年間兩期刊所刊登之論文為研究範圍，應用自編之內容分析登錄表由2位登錄員進行登錄。結果發現兩期刊所刊載之論文以自然科學為多，其中《體育學報》收錄篇數最多的是運動心理學，而《大專體育學刊》收錄篇數最多的則是運動生理學；在作者人數方面，多人共同研究成為主流，其中《體育學報》以兩位作者的篇數最多，而《大專體育學刊》則以三位作者的篇數最多；在作者來源上，兩期刊的主要貢獻者少有重疊之處，其中刊登於《體育學報》的作者主要來自國立臺灣師範大學，而刊登於《大專體育學刊》的作者則以國立體育大學為多；在熱門議題方面，除統計分析方法外，兩期刊所共同關注的議題包含：身體活動、老化、運動訓練、肌電圖、運動表現與動作學習。根據上述之研究發現，給期刊發行單位和未來研究提出數個建議。

The purpose of this study was to trace the development of Physical Education Journal and Sport and Exercise Research in terms of published articles from 2009 through 2015. The analysis of the data provides the taxonomy of subject areas for the articles, summary information on authorship including the impact of collaboration, and an assessment of the institutional affiliation of the contributing authors, and popular topics in two journals. The research method used in this study was content analysis by using the content analysis list designed from the researchers. Each issue of the journal was reviewed independently by two data coders who wrote down the descriptive information and then compared their records prior to entering the information in the database. This study finds that the two journals accepted more natural science articles than social science articles. Physical Education Journal published maximum articles in sport psychology and Sport and Exercise Research published maximum articles in exercise physiology. In terms of the numbers of authors, multiple-authored articles accounting for the majority than single-authored articles. Physical Education Journal most in two authorships, Sport and Exercise Research most in three authorships. The published articles of author source are different in the two journals. For the Physical Education Journal, National Taiwan Normal University accounted for the articles most, however, National Taiwan Sport University more in Sport and Exercise Research. Except for statistics analysis methods, physical activity, aging, sport training, electromyography, sports performance, and motor learning have been the most popular topics in two journals. According to the findings above, some advice were suggested for publishing units and future studies.
